Two men in their early 30s were fatally stabbed and shot early Sunday outside a Downey sports bar, authorities said.
Officers responded about 2 a.m. to a fight and stabbing reported in the parking lot of George’s Restaurant and Bar in the 7800 block of Florence Avenue, Downey Police Sgt. Jerry Massie said.
When officers arrived, they discovered two male victims lying in the street, both suffering from stab and gunshot wounds, Massie said. The victims were transported to a local hospital where they were pronounced dead.
The suspects, described only as males, were last seen driving west on Florence in unidentified vehicles. It was not clear how many suspects were involved nor how the fight began.
